Kept on for good second at Ayr (6f) last month on third start; lesser run when fourth at Leicester (7f) 12 days ago and he has something to prove at the trip, but his peak form gives him a leading shout.

Sole win from 20 starts came on AW at Southwell (7f) in March; has plenty of placed efforts on her CV, and didn't get the breaks when sixth (Surgeon Commander fourth) at Doncaster latest; should give her running from what is a reasonably competitive mark.
